Vader is a Dark Character (Imperial) from Premiere Two-Player Introductory Game.
Card Text
Must deploy on Death Star, but may move elsewhere. May not be deployed if two or more of opponent's unique (•) characters on table. If in a losing battle, draw destiny. If destiny > 4, 'choke' (lose) one Imperial present (your choice).
Lore
Sought to extinguish all Jedi. Former student of Obi-Wan Kenobi. Seduced by the dark side of the Force.
Joke
If Vader loses a battle, his game text can make the Dark Side player "'choke' (lose)" one of their own Imperials there, as Vader chokes his own officers in the films.[1] It is part of the running gag of cards where Vader chokes his own officers. See Jokes.
Combos
- Vader + I Have You Now Add one battle destiny (two if Rebel is Luke) if a Dark Jedi and a Rebel with ability > 2 are involved in the same battle.[2]
- Vader + Force Field Cancels an attempt to target a Dark Jedi with a character weapon.
